Dear colleagues,
Please, let us discuss your opinions about the publications in the open access and the traditional Journals and the difference between them. What is meaning by open access journals? What is the open access article? How much does it cost to publish in open access journals? How it can reflect the author personality? Which one is more trusted?
Regards.
Many people are struggle when they decide to publish a paper whether to do so in an open-access journal or a traditional journal. I think that the factors to consider when making this decision are visibility, cost, prestige, and speed. In my opinion the publishing an article in an open-access journal means that more people are likely to see it.
Nice question I think most high impact factor journals give you two options the first one to pay an amount and your paper will be open access, and the other according to the submitted copy right form you will get author copy for one month after that the publisher will put an amount to download it.

There are many journals offering the two options ( open access option and the traditional option). In case of open access option, undoubtedly, the visibility of the paper for the readers will be higher than that in the case of the traditional option. On the contrast, there are many fake open access and cheap journals. Therefore, when someone decides to publish a paper as open access must choose the trusted journals. The main problem of the open access option is the cost.
Dear Abdelfatah Ali ,
Thank you very much for your attention. yes off course, many journals are offering the two choices, but as you know publishing an article in an open-access journal means that more people are likely to see it, isn't it?

Articles are mainly published to make them known to the world. Open access journals increase the visibility of the article, thus more people can read the article while traditional journals limit the number of people who can have access to your article and read.
